Anyways, I wouldn't discuss this game here in scapers. In a Christian perspective, the game's blasphemous. But in a secular and humanistic perspective, the game's concept is brilliant, even though they got Buddha, Mohamad, and Moses mistaken for gods (because it's designed to ridicule). So yeah, I wouldn't discuss it here. |

Ooh, another good one: Cthulu. He's also represented by a sticker for the generic idol, but that figure is kind of boring to play with. |

Re: Playing Gods
He's not any less real than any of the other characters mentioned in this thread, and I doubt this game is trying to be controversial. Why can't you just do something that you know will be controversial, but without regard to that possibility? This game has a message: Get along. Fighting is for board games. It is poking fun at religion but it's not poking fun just to make you angry, it's doing it because it wants to and it will please those who don't shut it away at first glance.

Re: Playing Gods
From the webpage: "Mythology is what we call someone else's religion." -Joseph Campbell [/quote]
this is probably the single most brilliant statement i've ever heard about religion. Nothing is more true than this. Plus, how would the devil even work. It would be a contradiction on so many levels, as the devil is created as a christian entity, yet the christian religion doesn't acknowledge any other gods except theirs. So the Devil in christian perspectives, isn't a god at all. Yet he has all the powers of one. I thought I was wrong once, but I was mistaken. |

Re: Playing Gods
Sounds like this game might appeal to people who enjoy dark/satirical comedy, like the movie Dogma and things of that ilk. It doesn't interest me, but I can see how there's a niche market for it beyond atheists.
